Benefits of technology

The present invention aims to improve the ease of use of bodkins compared to conventional bodkins.

Problems solved by technology

Consequently, the operation has to be performed again from the first step, which impairs the ease of use.
Accordingly, when the conventional bodkin is drawn through such a casing, the bar portion and the upper and lower holding plates easily rotate relative to each other due to the influence of the curved portion of the casing, and, thus, the above-described problem easily occurs.

Embodiment Construction

[0028]Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to the drawings.

[0029]FIGS. 1 to 5 show an embodiment of a bodkin according to the present invention. A bodkin A of this embodiment includes a lower holding plate 1, an upper holding plate 2, an operation plate 3, and a bar member 4.

[0030]The lower holding plate 1 extends in a constant direction (the direction x) from a base end portion 11 to a front end portion 12. In this embodiment, the lower holding plate 1 has a pair of upright pieces 13. The pair of upright pieces 13 are provided at both sides in a width direction (the direction y at a right angle with respect to the direction x) of the lower holding plate 1 at a position between the base end portion 11 and the front end portion 12 in the direction x. The pair of upright pieces 13 stand upright in a height direction (the direction z at a right angle with respect to both of the direction x and the direction y). The pa...

Abstract

A bodkin includes first and second holding plates, an operation plate and an elongated bar member. The second holding plate overlaps with the first holding plate. The operation plate is rotatably supported by the first holding plate with a part of the second holding plate disposed between the first holding plate and the operation plate. The bar member is connected to the first holding plate so that the operation plate is operable independently of the bar member. Use of the operation plate enables the bodkin to selectively take an opened state and a closed state. In the opened state, the two holding plates are apart from each other, providing a gap into which an end of a string can be inserted. In the closed state, the two holding plates are brought closer to each other, thereby pinching the end of the string between them.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention:[0002]The present invention relates to a bodkin used for, for example, drawing an elastic string or the like through an appropriate portion in a clothing product or a needle craft product, such as a waist portion of a skirt or pants.[0003]2. Description of Related Art:[0004]Conventionally, various types of bodkins used for drawing an elastic string or the like have been proposed (see JP 2014-105420A, for example). The bodkin described in JP 2014-105420A includes a clip portion (4) and a bar portion (5) connected to the clip portion. The clip portion (4) has an upper holding plate (1), a lower holding plate (2), and an operation plate (3). The operation plate is connected to rear end portions of the upper holding plate and the lower holding plate. Front end portions of the upper holding plate and the lower holding plate are opened and closed by rotating the operation plate. The bar portion (5) is integrally connected to a rea...
